About: I provide reliable dog walking, drop-in visits, and in-home pet care. I have experience caring for a cat for 17 years and a Maltese for 2 years, so I understand both long-term care and daily pet needs. I’m calm, patient, and good with all temperaments, and I follow routines carefully to keep pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping owners updated. Pet care is my full-time focus, allowing me to offer availability seven days a week for dog walking, drop-in visits, and in-home sitting. My flexible schedule enables me to provide dependable care, consistent routines, and personalized attention to each pet’s needs. Please feel free to contact me to discuss availability and scheduling. My focus is to keep pets comfortable and secure by maintaining their normal routine in their own home while carefully following all care instructions, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, medication, and playtime. I also provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for at all times.

Elizabeth was patient and understanding with my dog Day 1 was very anxious for me cuz my dog always has "stranger danger" alert on but it didn't take awhile for my dog to get used to her and they became best friends right away! She sends updates and very prompt/ attentive when there was issues with my dog. She definitely knew what to do. would 100% recommend 😀

Michelle’s profile is mostly about her love of and gift with dogs, but let me tell you she is a cat person/lover of all animals for sure! She stayed at our place for two weeks while we were out of the country for a wedding and we were SO comforted to know that our senior cat Alfie was in good hands. Michelle took copious notes about his care, was mindful of making sure he was eating right and taking his medication, and loved on him so good! She sent pictures and updates - and it was clear that Alfie took a liking to snuggling with her and sleeping with her. She seemed to really enjoy him as well, and it always feels good to know that your fur baby is in caring hands. She was communicative and reliable (and funny!), and our home was in good shape upon our return. I would wholeheartedly recommend Michelle and hope to work with her again!

Great experience again with Marquis watching Braxton while I was across the country. Braxton was well cared for and he even went out of his way to buy him treats to help his stinky breath. Braxton now loves and they’ve become part of our daily routine. I will always recommend Marquis!

About: I'm a extremely nuturing individual and have had the immense pleasure of caring for pets kittens to seniors/puppies to seniors for over 25 years. I'm very hands on and i very meticulously make sure they are both comforted as well as comfortable. You will find no one more skilled in being your pets caregiver. I'm currently not working! So I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups/kittens! I'm available for boarding weekdays all day. And weekends after 3. I can take your pups to a dog park and play as I do not have a fenced yard. Also I have a play room for kitty.

Kaitlin was an excellent sitter. She even came early on a Saturday morning to give them their breakfasts. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the weekend, and by the end, our cats were big fans, showing their love. We will definitely book her again the next time we are both out of town.

About: I work from home and have a flexible schedule with very few weekly meetings, which means I’m able to give your pup plenty of attention and take them on walks throughout the day. Your dog will enjoy regular exercise, playtime, and companionship. I’m also a proud dog parent to three of my own “dog-kids,” each with their own unique size, age, and personality. This has given me hands-on experience in caring for dogs of all temperaments and needs, from energetic puppies to senior dogs. What I offer: - Frequent walks and outdoor time - Personalized care based on your dog’s routine and preferences - Experience with multiple dogs at once - Safe, loving, and attentive environment I work full time from home and don't have many meetings throughout my day so am able to tend to your dog's every need at any moment. - Frequent dog walks and play time - The apartment complex I live in has it's own walking trail. - Medicine administration provided if needed

Kaitlin was so great house sitting with our rescue dog Gus while we were away. She was super responsive as we got close to our trip. Gus can be a handful with certain quirks he has, and I left her a crazy long document with all of the things to keep in mind (along with basic care instructions) and she read it ahead of time, asked great questions, and used my tips when needed during her stay. We received tons of updates every day and things couldn't have gone better. Our place was clean and well taken care of while we were gone. Wonderful experience thank you Kaitlin!

Ronald and his wife are reliable— and that’s what matters the most for our baby Bruno. They love him dearly and Bruno from the videos loves them too! We really appreciate their constant communication since Bruno is not good with other dogs and that can be difficult. We’ll definitely book them again!
